can't help but feel alone

Less than one minute read time.
Hi all, it's about 11:15 and the household is shutting down, but my head isn't, maybe those sleeping tablets have lost their power to put me in nice land of nod. The kids are in bed, my husband (who's got a cold) in bed the cats have turned in and the dogs have also abbandoned me and gone in there baskets! So here alone with my thoughts overtaking me! They are as follows-feeling sorry for myself-feeling alone and has my life been worth it! Don't have many friends on here, sometimes wonder if they are in there own little clicky groups, and no - one is actually interested in speaking to me, been on here long enough! post a few blogs go on the chat line, but not many people find me a person that wants to speak to me, execept my friend the yank (hope your well by the way). take care all you cancer sufferers like me, and expecially to their loved ones.

    hi jilly, please dont feel like this! i know what you mean about the chat room being a bit clicky i have found that too! always the same people etc. i dont really think you can chat properly on there. i have found it better to pm someone and talk that way, its also good for finding people with the same cancer as yourself and sharing and supporting each other! i am now in contact with a couple of people and have found it so much better than the livechat! and of course theres always facebook where you can live chat one to one privateley.

    i know how you feeling at the moment and please feel free to pm me.

    dont feel alone theres always someone out there, stay strong, take care xx

    Hello Jilly

    I felt the same about the chat room. I would not recommend you go there if you are a bit down on yourself as the clique are fairly unforgiving. What I would say is it is ok to feel sorry for yourself, I do it often, you don't need to tell those around you, it is however a very valid and common feeling amongst cancer sufferers. I am lucky as I have no family around me so don't have to show a brave face. I am though a very positive person and don't think cancer is a life sentance having overcome it befoer 13 years ago. I wont be around in a few weeks as I'm off for more surgery but I offer the branch of friendship to you, if I can help I will. I can feel your frustration but hang on in there and steer clear of the chatroom!!!
